Still need week 9 picks from @Owls2005, @swcgillespie, @billybob, and @Bulldog15

I’m just going to set it up with the system we have now. If Lutheran ends up in a 32 team 1A (SPOILER ALERT! They would) then that’s how I’ll have it on my classification lists. I’ll leave it up to everyone else to argue whether that’s fair or not.

My week 9 picks: BNL (5-3, 4-1 HHC) at Columbus East (3-5, 3-2 HHC) #8/#9 Floyd Central (7-1, 5-0 HHC) at New Albany (2-6, 2-3 HHC) Jennings County (3-5, 0-5 HHC) at Jeffersonville (0-8, 0-5 HHC) Seymour (5-3) at #3 Bloomington South (7-1)

I’m putting together a list of classifications for the scenario of a 32 team 1A and a 32 team 6A. I might just create a new topic thread since it’s not really relevant to the subject of this one. Stay tuned.

Dick the Bruiser, the Crusher, Wilbur Snyder, Bobo Brazil, Baron von Raschke, the Valiants, the Blackjacks, Bobby Heenan…All WWA legends.

He actually went to Shortridge his first two years of high school and played football there.

I’m curious as to how many people on here actually know who Wilbur Snyder is. The young folks have probably never heard of him. Heck, most don’t even know Dick the Bruiser which feels like a crime if you’re a Hoosier.

This week’s games (week 9): BNL (5-3, 4-1 HHC) at Columbus East (3-5, 3-2 HHC) #8/#9 Floyd Central (7-1, 5-0 HHC) at New Albany (2-6, 2-3 HHC) Jennings County (3-5, 0-5 HHC) at Jeffersonville (0-8, 0-5 HHC) Seymour (5-3) at #3 Bloomington South (7-1) Notes: -Floyd Central remains #8 in the media poll but moved a spot to #9 in the coaches poll. -Bloomington South is #3 in both polls. -A BNL win and a Floyd Central loss would result in a shared HHC championship and would make BNL back-to-back champions for the first time since the 1980 and 1981 seasons. -Jennings County and Jeffersonville are playing in a last place game. Jeffersonville finished in last place last year while Jennings County finished in last place in 2018, 2019 (with Madison), 2020, and 2021. You have to go back to 2015 to find a year in which a team aside from Madison finished below both Jennings County and Jeffersonville.

Seed the sectionals?! Are you insane?! Now why would the IHSAA give any merit to the regular season? Let everyone into the postseason and let everyone’s fates be determined by a machine!!! That’s the most fair!!! I think the real issue is that you guys want to take the fun out of it for the IHSAA by not allowing them to use their table tennis ball (not ping pong balls; it’s offensive) machine. They look forward to using that thing multiple times a year like any child would and the fact you guys want to take that away from them is un-Christian. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

HHC Pick ‘Em Standings (after week 8): @boilerfan87 35/38 @LC_Bears_04 34/38 @Uncle Bubba 34/38 @billybob 32/38 @Frozen Tundra 31/38 @LawrenceGreene 31/38 @Owls2005 31/38 @Impartial_Observer 30/38 @swcgillespie 30/38 @Fkfootball 29/31 @Bulldog15 27/31 @mamasa 22/34

Terre Haute South @ Columbus North Bloomington North @ Southport Seymour @ Bloomington South Terre Haute North @ Brebeuf Jesuit

I was told it was an ACL tear

Again, injuries did them in. When I saw them at the beginning of the year, it was the most visually impressive I’ve seen their line look in a long time.

He’s a very good QB and a very good basketball player. Unfortunately, his sophomore year in both sports will only be comprised of nine quarters of football. He won’t get any in basketball due to his injury.

BNL 50 Madison 0 Final

Seymour 53 New Albany 14 Final

Columbus East 25 Jeffersonville 7 Final Yeah Jennings County is a much different team than they were the first two weeks. Injuries wrecked them and made them one-dimensional offensively.

Columbus East 25 Jeffersonville 0 6:50 to go

Floyd Central 56 Jennings County 14 11:26 left

I heard Jennings County made a QB change last week and it improved the offense.

Still need picks from @LawrenceGreene, @mamasa, and @swcgillespie

Boring week for picks. These should be unanimous. Columbus East (2-5, 2-2 HHC) at Jeffersonville (0-7, 0-4 HHC) Jennings County (3-4, 0-4 HHC) at #8/#10 Floyd Central (6-1, 4-0 HHC) New Albany (2-5, 2-2 HHC) at Seymour (4-3, 3-2 HHC) Madison (1-6) at BNL (4-3)

This week’s games (week 8): Columbus East (2-5, 2-2 HHC) at Jeffersonville (0-7, 0-4 HHC) Jennings County (3-4, 0-4 HHC) at #8/#10 Floyd Central (6-1, 4-0 HHC) New Albany (2-5, 2-2 HHC) at Seymour (4-3, 3-2 HHC) Madison (1-6) at BNL (4-3) Notes: -Floyd Central moved up to a tie with Decatur Central for #8 in the media poll. They also finally broke into the coaches poll where they are ranked #10. -With a win, Floyd Central will clinch at least a share of their first HHC championship since 2003.

Apparently every school is running Glesing off these days. Four schools in the six years since leaving Floyd Central.
